Lovely, lovely Martha Brockenbrough, she of SPOGG fame and author of many wonderful MSN Encarta articles, has bullied the powers that be into holding a national grammar day in the US.
Here is one reason why she thinks they need it.
National Grammar day is on March 4th (that's what we linguists call a pun—get it?) and may or may not feature an angry, pitch-fork brandishing mob torching restaurants and shops that have grammatically incorrect signage.
Live the dream, my American cousins.
